Objective:To explore the risk factors for recurrence of intussusception in children after successful ultrasound-guided saline enema reduction.Methods:The clinical and follow up data of 355 hospitalized children with intussusception at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from Feb 2018 to Feb 2023 were reviewed.Patients were divided into two groups by recurrence develped and the differences were compared, Data with significant differences were incorporated into multi-factor logistic analysis.Results:The overall recurrence rate was 15.8% (56/355). By univariate variable analysis model, there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in age, previous intussusception history, vomiting, maximum diameter of concentric circles shown by ultrasound, and concurrent bowel organic diseases (lead points) (all P<0.05). In multivariate Logistic regression model, age, previous intussusception history, maximum diameter of concentric circles, and lead points were independent risk factors for recurrent intussusception after saline enema.The optimal cut-off values for age and maximum diameter of concentric circles were 2 years and 33.5 mm, respectively, according to ROC curve analysis. Conclusion:Age older than 2 years, previous intussusception history, maximum diameter of concentric circles longer than 33.5 mm, and lead points are independent risk factors for recurrence after saline enema.

Objective To employ image post-processing technique measuring splenic volume for evaluating the mitigation effect of end-stage liver disease patients complicated with different degrees of hypersplenism undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation .Methods For 55 end-stage liver disease patients with hypersplenism undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation ,the changes in splenic volume were measured before and after transplantation by image post-processing system Advantage Workstation 46 (AW46) and the changes of splenic thickness ,portal flow velocity and platelet counts observed during perioperative period .Results Postoperative splenic volumes of 55 recipients were (562 .90 ± 49 .16) cm3 ,significantly decreased than preoperative (850 .50 ± 77 .99) cm3 (P< 0 .05) and reduction ratio was (31 .70 ± 2 .76 )％ . Splenic thickness at different postoperative timepoints was significantly lower than that pre-operation (P< 0 .05) and stabilized at 1 month post-transplantation ; Splenic volume was positively correlated with splenic thickness ( r = 0 .78 , P < 0 .05 ) . Portal flow velocity at different postoperative timepoints increased significantly as compared with preoperative ( P < 0 .05) ,peaked at (380 .70 ± 21 .80) mm/s at 1 month post-transplantation ,declined and stabilized at 3 months post-transplantation . Platelet counts (PLT ) at different postoperative timepoints were significantly higher than those at pre-operation ( P < 0 .05 ) ,peaked (193 .40 ± 10 .36 ) × 109 /L at 2 weeks post-transplantation ,dropped and remained at 2 months post-transplantation ;Splenic volume was negatively correlated with PLT ( r = -0 .44 , P < 0 .05 ) . And hypersplenism recovery rate and recurrence rate within 10 months post-transplantation was (78 .79 ± 2 .29 )％ and (17 .75 ± 2 .31 )％ respectively .Conclusions Orthotopic liver transplantation can effectively alleviate hypersplenism for most end-stage liver diseases .Using image post-processing system ,splenic volume may be calculated and blood routine and ultrasound are simultaneously used for assessing the outcomes of liver transplantation on hypersplenism .

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) carrier woman of childbearing age with high viral load is an important source of vertical transmission of hepatitis b virus from mother-to-child in China. Routine blockade with immunoglobulin combined with hepatitis B vaccine is used for neonates born to pregnant women with high viral load of hepatitis B virus, but in some cases, immunoprophylaxis fails. The main application of antiviral drugs in pregnancy is to reduce the serum viral load, thereby significantly improve the blocking rate of vertical transmission between mother and infant. Current evidence suggested that if the maternal age is less than 30 years old, with no obvious liver fibrosis or cirrhosis and there is no increase in ALT level >2ULN( upper limit of normal) during the treatment, the treatment with antiviral drugs can be stopped after delivery immediately. Additionally, ALT level should be examined at 4, 12 and 24 weeks after stopping the drug. Antiviral therapy for the occurrence of hepatitis attack should be given if criteria for HBV treatment are met.

Objective: To explore the improvement rate of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection who received entecavir alone or in combination with anluohuaxianwan for 78 weeks. Methods: Patients with chronic HBV infection were randomly treated with entecavir alone or in combination with anluohuaxian for 78 weeks. Ishak fibrosis score was used for blind interpretation of liver biopsy specimens. The improvement in liver fibrosis condition before and after the treatment was compared. Student's t test and non-parametric test (Mann-Whitney U-Test and Kruskal-Wallis test) were used to analyze the measurement data. The categorical variables were analyzed by Chi-square test method and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient was used to test bivariate associations. Results: Liver fibrosis improvement rate after 78 weeks of treatment was 36.53% (80/219) and the progression rate was 23.29% (51/219). The improvement of liver fibrosis was associated to the degree of baseline fibrosis and treatment methods (P < 0.05). The improvement rate of hepatic fibrosis in patients treated with anluohuaxianwan combined with entecavir at baseline F < 3 (54.74%, 52/95) was significantly higher than that in patients treated only with entecavir (33.33%, 16/48), P = 0.016 and the progression rate of hepatic fibrosis (13.68%, 13/95) was lower than that in patients treated alone (18.75%, 9/48), P = 0.466. In patients with baseline F < 3, the proportion of patients with improved and stable liver fibrosis in the combined treatment group (68.1%, 32/47) was higher than that in the treatment group alone (51.7%, 15/29). Conclusion Combined anluohuaxianwan and entecavir treatment can significantly improve the improvement rate of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. Furthermore, it has the tendency to improve the stability rate and reduce the rate of progression of liver fibrosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and related risk factors of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture (OPF) in patients with rheumatic diseases (RD),and the fracture predictive values of fracture risk assessment tool fracture risk assessment (FRAX(R))for Han patients.Methods A total of 313 untreated RD patients were included.Each individual BMD was measured at lumbar spine and femoral neck with Dual-energy X-ray absorptionary.Ten-year probability of fracture (％) was calculated by fracture risk assessment tool FRAX(R) of Chinese model.Each individual previous fracture was confirmed by X-ray or CT examination.The associations between BMD,FRAX),previous fracture and age,bone mass index,nationality,erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and RD types were analyzed.T test or Wilcoxon test was used to compare the difference between groups for statistical analysis.Pearson/Spearman rank order and binary regression were used to analyze the correlations between variables of normal/non-normal and two classification distribution.Results ① The BMD of patients with untreated RD was significantly lower than that of control group (P=0.000).Individuals diagnosed with "osteopenia" in the RD group and control group were accounted for 39.3％ (123/313) and 15.8％ (47/296) respectively.Individuals diagnosed with "osteoporosis" in RD group and control group were accounted for 11.5％ (36/313) and 5.4％ (16/296) respectively.② The next 10-year probability of the hip (Z=-2.28,P=0.02) and major osteoporotic fracture (Z=-1.98,P=0.03) were higher than those of the control group,as well as the actual incidence of OPF (x2=25.11,P=0.00),the difference was statistically significant.③ 27.3％(18/66) and 55.0％(11/20) of the previous OPF patients in RD group and control group achieved the diagnostic criteria of "high risk" of hip fracture.And 12.1％ (8/66) and 35.0％ (7/20) achieved the "high risk" of major osteoporotic fracture.④ Patients with RA,SLE and pSS had significantly increased risk of fracture.Ten-year fracture risks were negatively related to advanced age,female gender and ESR.Conclusion Bone loss and increased fracture risk are prevalent in the early stage of untreated rheumatism patients.RA,SLE plays an important role in low bone mass.The FRAX China model may underestimate 10-year fracture probability of RD patients and controls.Further explore should be done to predict the FRAX China model on different areas and different RDs.

Objective To discuss the modified eversion thrombectomy for portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in liver transplantation and the curative effectiveness.Methods All 613 cases complicated with PVT preoperation were given modified eversion thrombectomy,and there were 179,236,182 and 16 cases of PVT Yerdel grade Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ respectively.Results All 415 PVT patients of grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ received modified eversion thrombectomy and success rate was 100％.Among 182 PVT patients of grade Ⅲ received modified eversion thrombectomy (success in 176 cases,and failure in 6 cases).Sixteen PVT patients of grade Ⅳ received modified eversion thrombectomy (success in 13 cases and failure in 3 cases).The 1-year survival rate of PVT patients after surgical operation was 93.6％,and that of non-PVT patients was 94.6％ (P＞0.05).Conclusion Modified eversion thrombectomy could be adopted in PVT patients regarding to different Yerdel grades.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of combining hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) with repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in the treatment of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI).Methods A total of 56 hospitalized VCI patients were randomly divided into an HBO+rTMS group (n =25) and an rTMS group (n =27).The patients of both groups were given routine medication,rehabilitation and rTMS treatment,while the HBO+rTMS group was additionally provided with HBO.The mini mental state examination (MMSE),the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA),the Lo Winston occupational therapy cognitive assessment (LOTCA) and the modified Barthel index (MBI) were used to evaluate the cognitive function of both groups before and after 4 weeks of treatment.Results Before the treatment there were no significant differences between the two groups in any of the average measurements.After the treatment,significant improvement was observed in the average MMSE and MBI scores in both groups,with significantly greater improvement in the HBO+rTMS group.After the treatment,all the average subscores except that of naming and the total MMSE score of the rTMS group had improved significantly,together with all the average sub-scores and total scores of the HBO+rTMS group.After the treatment the average visual space and execution,abstraction,delayed recall,orientation and the total MoCA score of the HBO+rTMS group were all significantly higher than those of the control group.Conclusion HBO combined with rTMS can improve cognitive function and the life quality of VCI patients.

Objective To study long-term post-liver-transplantation hyperuricemia (HUA) and the influence of urate-lowering therapyon renal functions of adult patients.Methods Among 428 cases undergoing liver transplantations during March 2011 to December 2013,206 patients,whose followup periods were above 1 year,were selected as the objects of study.Those whose two-time serum uric acid (SUA) levels tested not in the same day one year after operation ＞420 μmol/L (male),or female ＞360 μmol/L (female) were divided into HUA group,and non-HUA group.The serum creatinine (SCr) concentrations and glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were analyzedin the two groups at their peak SUA to find whether there was any difference between the two groups.Meanwhile,27 HUA patients with abnormal renal function were given urate-lowering therapy and the differences in SCr and eGFR after the therapy were observed.Results 49.5％ patients sufferedlong-term HUA after liver transplantations.As compared with non-HUA group,SCrconcentrations were increased statistically (P＜0.05),and eGFR was reduced statistically in HUA group (P＜0.05).After 8-week uratelowering therapy among 27 patients,SUA level in 24 cases (88.9％,24/27) returned to the normal standard and SCr concentrations in 21 cases (77.8％,21/27) decreased for a certain degree.SUA levels were decreased to (349.93 ± 22.85)μmol/L from (532.94 ± 93.91) μmol/L (P＜0.001).SCr concentrations were decreased to (129.52 ± 19.06)μmol/L from (144.95 ± 13.51) μmol/L (P =0.016).The eGFR increased to (56.30 ± 11.46) ml · min-1 · 1.73 m-2 from (46.46 ± 8.11) ml·min-1 ·1.73 m-2(P =0.012),which showed a certain degree of improvement in their renal functions.Conclusion HUA is a long-term common complication in liver transplanted adult patients,which has a negative influence on patients' renal functions,so we need to pay enough attention to this.Urate-lowing therapy has a positive influence on the improvement of renal function if other factors were excluded from the treatment.
